Align Saved View Boundary with Clip Volume

I'm trying to get the Saved View boundary to match the clip volume it contains rather than being offset from it? These saved views are automatically created when you use the "Place Named Boundary From Drawing Boundary" tool:

I tried using the following keyin with no results:

NAMEDVIEW FIT CLIPVOLUME

I can do this manually by editing the boundary handles and snapping to the clip rectangle:

Any suggestions?

    Have you tried using other methods associated with the "Place Named Boundary" tool. (i.e. By Element, By 2 Points, etc.)? Perhaps placing a Named Boundary from an existing fence could also prove useful as an alternative method for what you are trying to accomplish.

  • The other methods you mentioned are time consuming since they don't use predefined sheet seeds. The user would need to calculate the available drawing area using the sheet plot scale, place simple boundary elements in the design model and then snap to those elements to create named boundaries. These methods are useful when working with a small number of sheets.
